I am an avid fan of most things animated. There have to be others out there. But why are there so few animation sites. There’s no shortage of anime sites. They seem to overun the net. So why are there not many general animation news sites? I know of two total worldwide (and they exist at the same domain).

Are there any others that exist anywhere.
(And, yes I do know of the corporation websites like www.disney.com et. al.)
Here’s one:
www.nonstick.com
Does Stay Tooned still update. I was under the impression they were taking it down. Anyway I can’t get access. (No DNS entry).
Maybe I needed to state my intentions. Those sites are good suggestions, but not what I’m looking for.
I was looking for a “Entertainment Tonight” type site on animation. You know what new movies are in production, what new shows are premering on Kids WB!, Fox Kids, Cartoon Network et. al. Which voice actors have been let go. Which ones died. What Chuck Jones has been up to lately. What John Krisfaluski (I know I misspelled his name) has been doing. You know, like those animation magazines but without being seven months out of date by release time. (September 1999: How “The Iron Giant” will save Warner Bros. Animation)
When crime is organized enough, it’s not even against the law.
I know the following may make this seem like the hunt for the golden unicorn, but. . .
I wish for it to be in one site.
Currently, I have to jump around the various companies’ websites, Check in on Voice Chasers, surf on over to Jeff Harris’ CNX Toonami Revolution (he does good research from the newsgroups and press releases) and then read up in www.awn.com and www.awn.com/blast . Oh yeah, I also search the message boards of Aimee Major (A CalArts student, Gargoyles](http://www.gargoyles-fans.org) fanatic!)
I just can’t believe no one has AP style digests on Animation. That is what I’m looking for.
And if www.staytooned.com is still up, thanks GuanoLad.
Come Monday, when my normal PC is back, I’m sending my query to USENET.

Well, as you probably have discovered now StayTooned is back up, and appears to be ongoing just fine.
However, if you do find the site you are hoping to discover, do tell me, as I’m interested too! I usually get my info from regular movie sites like www.aint-it-cool-news.com and www.darkhorizons.com etc which tend to be sparse on details, and heavy on extraneous crap. And too much Anime.
I know it’s kinda late for this but I have found that http://www.animenewsnetwork.com is the BEST place for anime news
Also, Animenation.
